DCM - Birthstone Challenge

January's birthstone is the Garnet, and this weeks dare at DCM is to make a card featuring this somehow. Well the stone is a deep red, and 'a gift of garnet is thought to be symbolic of love'. So from my pile of half finished projects, I rescued this cake shaped card which is suitable for a wedding, and added some um.... red things.

This next card is for the Bubbly Funk 25th club. The idea is to make a christmas card (or maybe more than 1) by the 25th of each month, so that by December you will have some put by. As my NYR is to be a little more organised I have decided not to put my Xmas craft stuff away, but to leave it where I can fall over it in the craft room. Joanne has set the theme this time - its a recipe to include turquoise or blue and aaaaaagh silver - I forgot that bit. Also a swirl and something sparkly.
